Politicians are like Nappies. They should both be changed frequently

Violette and her family actually lived at number 18 Burnley Road.
If you put the postcode SW9 0SJ into Google maps and use the Streetview option you can see the Blue Plaque on the front of the house.
Alternatively, copy the whole of the following link and post it into your browser's address bar to see the house and plaque:
http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=SW9+0SJ&hl=en&ll=51.469916,-0.11806&spn=0.00687,0.021136&sll=51.523925,-0.164036&sspn=0.006862,0.021136&vpsrc=0&hnear=London+SW9+0SJ,+United+Kingdom&t=m&layer=c&cbll=51.470732,-0.119297&panoid=u_slSCf_14GE_bE3y68xUA&cbp=12,153.43,,0,-5.18&z=16
Whichever way you use to get to the Streetview, if you zoom in a notch or two you can just about read "Szabo" in the larger letters on the plaque.
